  • I think the argument is that some players want the new urban town to be visitable and be able to live there. With that players have both options, similar to what they did in Nightlife.
  • I definitely agree with you. However, the good news is that you can move your families (and lots) to the bin and place them in the new urban town. That way your favorite Sims are always in on the action downtown. Unfortunately, this means that Sunset Valley, Riverview, and Twinbrook will pretty much remain neglected if one…
  • Vampires sound nice. I was never successful in getting my Sims bitten by one in Nightlife, so hopefully this time around I'm more successful. I've always been interested in fiction concerning vampires (e.g. Bram Stoker's Dracula and Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles). Personally, though, I was more looking forward to zombies.…
  • Yes, I want her back! She was such a funny addition to Hot Date, and her return in Nightlife was welcomed, too. I loved her quirky, high-pitched voice and the way she used to beat my Sims with her purse.
  • It sounds great, and I'm really looking forward to this expansion pack. However, I'm slightly worried it's going to turn out to be one mindless objective after another, similar to World Adventures and Ambitions. I really hope I'm wrong and they change things up for the third EP. Also, I'm wondering how my Sims will be able…
  • I think they temporarily disabled it, including the forum for Fast Lane Stuff.
  • This! I was just thinking what you stated. I can't understand how cars are masculine machines. As I understand it, there are millions of female drivers around the world. I'm certain they all would love to drive in style in a nice attractive looking car. As a male, I'm not really into cars as a "hobby," but being able to…
  • I have the same issue as well. I guess there's still no fix yet.
  • I'm having the same problem as Cherlew99 and Raventhorn. On the download page for the Escargot Outside Processor, it states "Please Update Your Game," even though it already is updated (with High-End Loft Stuff installed). Just for reference, I have the physical copy of High-End Loft Stuff. Is there a fix for this? It…
  • I'm having the same problem as Vindrus. On the download page for the Escargot Outside Processor, it states "Please Update Your Game," even though it already is updated (with High-End Loft Stuff installed). Is there a fix for this? It would be greatly appreciated.
  • 1. Do you seem interested in getting it? Yes. 2. What do you think the creature is? Must there be a creature? I hated that ongoing theme. 3. What vacation spot interests you the most? Egypt. 4. What vacation spot are you least interested in? None, they all seem interesting. 5. Are you planning on your Sims to live in a…
  • I tried that and it did not work, unfortunately. This is definitely an issue with the game itself (buggy piece of crap). I tried creating a new game in Riverview and all of the music worked. However, when I loaded my original game save, the music still did not work. So, I decided to copy my original save and load that to…
  • Really?! Are you certain? I have Realtek. This totally blows! I certainly hope the upcoming patch fixes this issue. It worked perfectly fine when I first installed the game. This angers me. :evil:
  • Perhaps it does have something to do with the size of the file and thus causing it to cycle over and over again due to EA's server. I've been trying to upload screenshots around 1MB in size typically. These are the largest size and highest quality (1080p). Perhaps I should try to lower the quality of my screenshots in the…
  • That's great! But can you enlighten us? I mean, did you change anything or do something different? Thanks in advance!
  • Thanks for offering assistance, but that didn't work for me either. Even though IE is not my default browser (I use Chrome), the Launcher uses IE automatically no matter what. But this didn't work, alas. I'm rather disappointed, as all I am trying to do is upload screenshots so I can make an album! In The Sims it was so…
  • Not to sound churlish, but that is the worst advice you can give to someone who is not tech savvy at all. I mean, she doesn't even understand what exactly is causing her game to crash, whether it's the video card, outdated drivers, etc. Windows 7 is NOT free. Windows 7 Release Candidate is free. This is a terrible…
  • Clearly I stated that she should upgrade to Vista and then update DirectX to DirectX 10. Windows 7?! It's not even out yet. She would have to wait till October just to hopefully play the game. That is why I suggested she install a non-OEM copy of Vista. Anyway, there isn't really a huge difference between Vista and 7,…
  • So, you have the latest ATI driver (6/15), The Sims 3 1.2.7.00001 patch, Catalyst driver, XP Service Pack 3? I really doubt it has to do with an incompatibility issue between the game and the card, since I have not had any problems. DirectX 9, you say? Download DirectX 10. Go here:…
  • I'm having the same problem! This is the only problem I've ever encountered with the game so far. I've successfully uploaded a Sim to use as my avatar, but it won't allow me to upload screenshots (even at 863 kilobytes). My guess is that there's something wrong with either the Launcher, the server, or both.
  • The cyclic redundancy error means that the disc is scratched, damaged, or defective. That's why it won't install. There's nothing wrong with your PC or your OS. Why won't the retailer let you exchange it for a new copy? Has it been too many days since you purchased it and the return policy is null? You should definitely…
  • It's not Windows Vista's fault. There's nothing wrong with the OS or your PC. It's just the way the programmers created The Sims 3 Launcher. Perhaps they'll update it one day so that it's fixed. But just so you know, mine does the same thing (Chrome is my default browser but it opens up in IE through the Launcher). It has…
  • missviolet29, I have a Core i7 920 as well! Isn't it sweet? I love it. I also have 6GB of DDR3 Tri-channel RAM, so it's blazingly fast (and I'm running Vista)! What specific Radeon HD 4800 card do you have? I have the Radeon HD 4850. Ask your husband(?) which card it is specifically, since the dxdiag will only state "4800…
  • ShortyBoo, I too have a Radeon HD 4850, and I have had absolutely no problems with it whatsoever. It's really a great graphics card; the best I've ever used. However, before I installed The Sims 3, I made sure I updated the drivers to the most recent (latest driver is from June I believe). So, it's definitely not just the…
